A lot of wanted pages are just dangling links from the Help pages, for pages that were not
created when we initially set up the wiki. I think most of these types of pages can just be
set to stubs. Alternatively, we can look at the MediaWiki site and copy the page from their
site for these dangling help examples.

Another big set of wanted pages are for links between pages that were copied from
the old CELF public wiki to here. This was done with some automated tools, which I think
made some errors in the translation from MoinMoin to MediaWiki. If the
legacy CELF page exists in this site, the link on the "requesting" page just needs to
be repaired. If there is not matching page, then the link should just be removed.

To de-orphan a page, follow the link to the page, and create a link to it from
an appropriate other page in the wiki. Before doing that, check to make sure that the
information on the page is not duplicated somewhere else in the wiki (maybe by doing
a search). Alternatively, sometimes the information can be copied from the orphan
to someplace else, and the orphan removed. If you copy the information to somewhere else,
just edit the orphan to make it empty, and add the page name to the list here, and an
administrator will remove the page.

Resources for volunteers and wiki administrators

History page - has information about how we got here and why. Also, has links to pages used for previous activities, like contests and promotions.

Ideas to encourage contributions

systems to facilitate exiting content review

create email system that people can subscribe to, to review wiki pages a little at a time

systems to facilitate addition of content

ability to bounce an LKML email to a collector, possibly adding a tag

collector would post to wiki, with tag

ability to forward and LKML email to a site, which returns you a URL (on e.g. lkml.org) for that message

This makes it easier to link to an LKML message or thread.

ability to rate LKML messages on a web site

Donations

We don't really have an official mechanism for donations of money.

We are, however, looking for donations of items we can use for prizes
for some of our upcoming contests. Embedded Linux-based products,
or tools or books related to embedded Linux, would be most appreciated.

If you have something like this, or a large donation (greater than $100), please
contact Tim Bird or Bill Traynor.
